Crown SX-724 Reel to Reel

These wonderful Crown reel to reel machines were made in the USA - Elkhart, Indiana to be exact.  This particular model sports the rare Crown hub adaptors for playing 10.5" reels.  Of course, it also plays 7" reels, and is capable of multiple speeds for both tape.

The machine retains the classic brushed silver faceplate that Crown is known for, offset my black dials, switches and trim and those two wonderful VU meters.  Giving away its commercial focus, this machine is wrapped in a heavy duty road case and many of the 700 and 800 series Crown Reel to Reel tape players were.

This machine is for sale for $400.  Please contact us if you are interested.
